Automotive & Motor Industry

Running a motor trade business comes with its own financial headaches — tight margins, shifting regulations, and capital tied up in stock. Whether you’re selling, servicing, repairing, or hiring vehicles in the East Midlands, the right financial systems and advice help you stay in control, boost profits, and drive growth.
VAT Expertise for Vehicle Sales

VAT on vehicle sales is complicated — Second-hand Margin Scheme, Qualifying Vehicles, Part Exchanges, insurance work, imports, exports and warranties. Get clear, expert guidance so you stay fully HMRC compliant while maximising profit on every deal.

Multi-Facility Financial Management

Expanding into service, repair, recovery, or vehicle hire? Each part of your business needs the right financial setup. Tailored systems help you track profitability across all areas, allocate costs properly, and grow with confidence.

Stock Acquisition & Management Systems

Stock is cash — treat it that way. Strong controls help you track reconditioning costs, recover them in your pricing, and stay on top of stock ageing and write-downs. The result? Stronger cash flow and more sales opportunities.

Working Capital Optimisation

Vehicle stock ties up a huge amount of cash. Solid financial planning helps you keep the right stock levels without strangling your liquidity. Stay flexible, stay profitable and keep your business moving forward.

Offering Finance

Customer finance options can boost margins, add commission income and close more deals. But FCA compliance, reporting and clawback risks can trip you up. The right support helps you balance opportunity with compliance — and stand out from the competition.

Quality Control Financial Systems

Reputation matters. Financial tracking systems that support thorough vehicle inspections and mechanical fixes protect your business, build trust with customers and protect your bottom line.
